Hazelton Elementary

Summary:

Hazelton Elementary is a public K-8 school in Stockton, California, serving 692 students. Unfortunately, this school has consistently ranked in the bottom 5% of California elementary schools over the past decade, with a 0-star rating from SchoolDigger, indicating very poor performance compared to other schools in the state.

Hazelton Elementary faces significant challenges, including high chronic absenteeism rates (49.5% in 2022-2023, compared to 31.6% district-wide), very low academic performance (only 18.87% of students were proficient or better in English Language Arts/Literacy in 2023-2024, compared to 28.71% for Stockton Unified and 47.04% for the state), and struggles to support the achievement of various student subgroups. The school also has a high percentage of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch (84.39% to 89.67%), and a relatively high student-teacher ratio (23.4 to 26.4).

While Hazelton Elementary faces significant challenges, some nearby schools within the Stockton Unified district, such as George Washington Elementary and San Joaquin Elementary, perform significantly better on standardized tests and have lower chronic absenteeism rates. This suggests that there may be opportunities for the district to implement targeted interventions and support to address the issues at Hazelton Elementary and ensure that all students have the opportunity to succeed.

As you review the school rankings data, please be aware that some of the information from certain demographics is missing. The reason for this omission is that the data has been redacted from the source data itself due to low population samples in these specific demographic groups.

Redacting data from low population samples is a necessary step to ensure the reliability and accuracy of the results, as small sample sizes may not be representative of the broader population. Additionally, this measure helps protect the privacy of individuals belonging to these demographic groups.

About Students eligible for discounted/free lunch:

The National School Lunch Program (NSLP) provides low-cost or free meals to students in U.S. public and nonprofit private schools based on household income. Those with incomes below 130% of the poverty line receive free lunch, while those between 130% and 185% qualify for reduced-price lunch. The percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch serves as a marker for poverty, as it reflects the socioeconomic status of families in a given school or district. A higher FRPL rate typically indicates a higher concentration of low-income families, suggesting that the school or district may face additional challenges in providing adequate resources and support for student success.

About Student-Teacher Ratio

Student/teacher ratio is calculated by dividing the total number of students by the total number of full-time equivalent teachers. Please note that a smaller student/teacher ratio does not necessarily translate to smaller class size. In some instances, schools hire teachers part time, and some teachers are hired for specialized instruction with very small class sizes. These and other factors contribute to the student/teacher ratio. Note: For private schools, Student/teacher ratio may not include Pre-Kindergarten.
